Hello dear readers of Eurovision Ireland!

Today we continue with our a new series: One Day Love!

Each week we will celebrate one song from Eurovision History. Here, you will find facts like: year, country, artist, title of the song, lyrics (translations when the song is in another language other than English), video, points and placement in the semi-final, final or even national final (if the song only performed at that stage of the competition).

This week we have a special guest for our One Day Love! Yes, it’s the beloved duo Antique!

Year: 2001

Country: Greece

Artist: Antique

Title: (I Would) Die For You

Lyrics:

(I Would) Die For You

Κάθησα και σκέφτηκα
Κι είδα ότι μ’ αγαπάς
Μόνο εσύ, μόνο εσύ
Όλα τ’ αλλα ψεύτικα
Μόνο η δίκη σου αγκαλιά
Με κρατά στη ζωή

‘Cause I would die for you
Δίπλα σου να μείνω μια ματιά
Κι όλα σου τα δίνω σαν κερί
Μακριά σου σβήνω
Μακριά σου δεν αξίζει τίποτα στη γη
Die for you
Δίπλα σου να μείνω μια ματιά
Κι όλα σου τα δίνω σαν κερί
Μακριά σου σβήνω
Μακριά σου δεν αξίζει τίποτα στη γη

Καθησά και σκέφτηκα
Κι είδα ότι μ’ αγαπάς
Μόνο εσύ, μονό εσύ

‘Cause I would die for you
Δίπλα σου να μείνω μια ματιά
Κι όλα σου τα δίνω σαν κερί
Μακριά σου σβήνω
Μακριά σου δεν αξίζει τίποτα στη γη
Die for you
Δίπλα σου να μείνω μια ματιά
Κι όλα σου τα δίνω σαν κερί
Μακριά σου σβήνω
Μακριά σου δεν αξίζει τίποτα στη γη

‘Cause I would die for you

English version

Loving you the way I do
And all these things that we’ve been through
Made me sad, made me mad
Finally that we’re apart
There’s only sorrow in my heart
Hard to say I’m okay
‘Cause I would die for you
Look into my eyes and see it’s true
Really, I could never lie to you
Just to make you see that
No one else could ever love you like the way I do
Die for you
Look into my eyes and see it’s true
Really, I could never lie to you
Just to make you see that
No one else could ever love you like the way I do
Now that you ain’t here no more
The nights are longer than before
Hard to say I’m okay
‘Cause I would die for you
Look into my eyes and see it’s true
Really, I could never lie to you
Just to make you see that
No one else could ever love you like the way I do
Die for you
Look into my eyes and see it’s true
Really, I could never lie to you
Just to make you see that
No one else could ever love you like the way I do
‘Cause I would die for you
